Juan Soto's 20th home run of the season, a three-run blast, has given the New York Yankees a 4-3 lead over the Toronto Blue Jays in the sixth inning. Soto's homer, which came off a 3-0 pitch, flipped the game in favor of the Yankees. Soto was +375 to hit a home run. Gleyber Torres added to the Yankees' lead with a two-run home run, making it 6-3. Torres, who had been benched for two games, returned to the lineup and delivered a crucial hit. The Yankees' offense appears to have woken up after a dry streak, providing the spark the team needed. Soto has 96 total bases in 127 at-bats on fastballs this season, the best in MLB.
